Tucson, Arizona's The Bled have entered the studio to record the follow-up to 2005's Found In The Flood. The band is recording with producer Brian McTernan (Hot Water Music, Strike Anywhere, Moneen, Bane) at Baltimore's Salad Days. A summer release via Vagrant is expected.

The band demoed eleven songs before hitting the studio. Guitarist Jeremy Talley commented "The new songs feel like the better parts of our first two records, mixed with some new ideas and surprises."

This month Vagrant re-released the band's previously out-of-print full length debut, Pass The Flask. The record was originally released on the now-defunct Fiddler Records.
